French designer Lydia Courteille launched a new season of high-end jewelry series-”Fragrant Concubine”, taking inspiration from Chinese history and culture, combining oriental jade and colored gemstones to create Xiangfei, Mogao Grottoes, Terracotta Warriors and more The theme jewelry works show the French “unique understanding” of Chinese culture.

The most striking thing in the new work is this “Fragrant Concubine” portrait ring-the prototype of the “Fragrant Concubine” is the concubine “Rong Fei” of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. It is said that she exudes strange fragrance all over her body. The ring face is painted with enamel to depict the portrait of the concubine, and the outer ring is surrounded by aquamarine, apatite, and vernainite. The clear blue tone contrasts with the ancient costumes of the concubine.

The pendant necklace inspired by the “Terracotta Warriors and Horses” made people laugh-the designer used gold carvings and gemstones to create 6 soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. The yellow-orange sapphires were paved to form the armor of the terracotta warriors. The face shape of the terracotta warriors is very different from that of the eastern people.

The bracelet works are based on the colorful and colorful murals of the Mogao Grottoes. The walls of the bracelet are designed as cornices, and glazed tiles are made of moonstones on both sides. Two jade lions guard an 11.60ct arc moonstone, which is exaggerated and interesting.

The most amazing style is a character pendant, inspired by the Han Dynasty “Jade Garment”. The designer uses tsavorites, green tourmalines, and pink sapphires to spread out neat grid patterns, symbolizing closely connected jade pieces. The whole work presents a natural gradient from dark green to pink. The figure also carries a jade in each hand. Fish, the elements mix and match to the extreme.
